PM me your complete VIN and I'll have an OASIS run on it. You can also have the dealer run it. Where in the Bay Area are you?

Dear SonicBlue,

Seems to TSB concerning ticking noise.

I think this will take you there.

well i had the 03 Mach 1 at Hayward Ford for the engine Tick ,
they couldnt find a thing wrong with it ,,, :??:
sounds kinda fishy and now there is no tick i even watched the mechanic check it out , he didnt do anything i could see i even went for a test drive with the mechanic ,,,:shrug:
Begining to thing my mach`s posessed
and im told by their service manager if they do find any noise they will replace the whole cylinder head not just repair the head thats on it now ,,,:??: ,,,and if i the engine blows up we replace it no questions asked , with the full coverage warranty i have, sounds like a drag racers dream come true,, heh
wonder if the seat squeaks can i get new cobra aniversary seats ,,,, laffin ,, whats gonna break next ???????:beer:
